Dogon Riddim – Wmg Lab Records

WMG Lab Records keeps Dogon Riddim on a breezy soca-afrobeats tip, with a light, dance-floor-ready pulse that leaves room for both melody and attitude. The five-track set is lean: J Dot Manswell’s “P. T. B. T. (Proud to Be Trini)” sets the tone with a patriotic hook, Carter rides in with “Tun Dah Way So, ” and Bubbles gets two passes at “Rider, ” including a raw cut that strips things back a touch. The instrumental sits at the end like a quick reminder of how tightly the riddim is put together, with the arrangement running just over 10 minutes in total. J Dot Manswell’s opener gives the release its clearest identity, but Bubbles’ “Rider” is the cut that leaves the sharpest mark.
